I've seen this question asked a few places, but none of the solutions I can find seem to work for me. Hoping to get some help specific to my system. I just can't seem to get Kontakt to show up in the Pro Tools plugin list.
I'm running Pro Tools Ultimate 2023.9 on MacOS 11.4 with an Intel Core i7. Kontakt 6 and 7 both work as standalone and in Ableton 11 for me. It's just the free Kontakt player, as I'm trying to test the sampler with my workflow before buying more packs and whatnot.
I've ensured that the aax plugins are in the correct folder (Application Support > Avid > Audio > Plug-ins), I've given the NI products and Pro Tools full disk access, reinstalled multiple times, even tried it with a different version of Pro Tools (2021), and nothing works. I've tried literally every tip I've found online when others ask this question. Native Instruments doesn't show up in the plugin "manufacturer" list in Pro Tools, and Kontakt isn't anywhere in the plugin list. I've tried Instrument tracks, stereo and mono, and just about every other type of track just to make sure. At a loss at this point. Any other help or troubleshooting tips would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!
